Speaking roughly, several centuries of charitable practice, in the English world at least, are fairly well summed up in the doggerel verses of that sixteenth-century divine, quoted by Hobson, who counselled his flock, "Yet cease not to give Without any regard; Though the beggars be wicked, Thou shalt have thy reward."
General Hobson, as he passed through it, greeted by what was now a large acquaintance, found himself driven once more to the inward confession the grudging confession as though Providence had not played him fair in extorting it that American politicians were of a vastly finer stamp than he had expected to find them. The American press was all he vowed that fancy had painted it, and more.
For some biologists, indeed, it seems clear that outside the home and the school women should not work at all. That view is extreme.

Mr. Hobson, and Deacon Lot Hovey, and Mr. Ben Rucker, and Abner Shackleford, and Levi Bell, and Dr. Robinson, and their wives, and the widow Bartley. Rev. Hobson and Dr. Robinson was down to the end of the town a-hunting together that is, I mean the doctor was shipping a sick man to t'other world, and the preacher was pinting him right. Lawyer Bell was away up to Louisville on business.

There are now, it is estimated, three and a half million women employed in industrial occupations, beside a million and a half domestic servants. See, e.g., J.A. Hobson, The Evolution of Modern Capitalism, second edition, 1907, Ch. XII, "Women in Modern Industry."
